Getting development economics right is critical. Slower progress has translated into lowered expectations about what is possible. Research and decision-making must drastically improve.

Development Economics X researches and builds economic, social and technological systems inspired by political economy, economic history and related fields. The goal is to provide efficient decision solutions for the private sector, governments, and international institutions throughout (what I call) the economic development stack for faster and better development.
